Abstract
The article analyses the occurrence of the iconography of the ruler crowned by angels in Wallachia in the mid-sixteenth century, a late revival of a Byzantine iconographic model with no examples known in Wallachia prior to this date. In the nave of the infirmary chapel of Cozia Monastery (1543), voivode Radu Paisie is depicted crowned by an angel and blessed by Saint Methodius of Patara, an iconographical hapax. The key for decoding the scene is provided by the Pseudo-Methodian Apocalypse, where a coronation by angels episode is found in the legend of the Last Christian Emperor. The frescoes were made in a political climate when anti-Ottoman war plans intensified in Central Europe following the occupation of Buda.
本文分析了16世纪中期瓦拉几亚地区天使加冕的统治者肖像的出现，这是一种拜占庭肖像模型的后期复兴，在此之前瓦拉几亚地区没有已知的例子。在科齐亚修道院医务室礼拜堂的中殿(1543年)，voivode Radu Paisie被一位天使加冕，并受到帕特拉的圣梅多迪乌斯的祝福。破解这一场景的关键是《伪卫理公会启示录》，在末代基督教皇帝的传说中发现了天使加冕的情节。这些壁画是在反奥斯曼战争计划在占领布达后中欧愈演愈烈的政治气候下创作的。
